===National Level Categories (Category: Page or Page (Genre))===
National pages that are used as categories (listed at the bottom of each page) and cover genre groups (clans, lodges), mechanics, powers or any other categories. These pages can have body content (which cold describe the in-character group or power) and list all pages that have this category. References to these pages can be <nowiki>[[::Carthian Movement]]</nowiki> or <nowiki>[[Carthian Movement]]</nowiki> (if there is a [[#Redirection|redirection]]). The alternative is to have a normal page (as that below).

These pages can have body content (describing the topic) and list all pages that have this category.

When there is a conflict between genres (where they have groups or powers of the same name) the genre '''''can''''' be referenced after the name in brackets as this is secondary. The decision on whether to do this is the value in keeping the categories separate, where a group (e.g. clan) may need a separate category whereas a power (e.g. discipline) may not. In this case the main category (without the genre) is to have both options listed, as such requiring another step to access the page should only the main category be referenced. '''This has yet to be confirmed.'''

''Please note that for Vampire some clans and disciplines are cross-genre, where as covenants are not. For this reason all clans and disciplines have the genre after the name in brackets as above.
Please note that when groups, powers or other items are in more than one genre/venue, it has yet been determined whether these should be a dual category or separate.

'''Redirection to page'''

The page for [[Carthian Movement]] is redirected to the 'Carthian Movement' category as it will contain information on the covenant and list all other pages (characters, lineages and powers) that have 'Carthian Movement' as a category. There is no need for the genre (Requiem) as covenants are not cross-genre.

'''Redirection to category with genre (cross-genre)'''
 +
 
 +
The page for [[Nosferatu]] holds links for both [[Nosferatu (Masquerade)]] and [[Nosferatu (Requiem)]], where each are redirected to the 'Nosferatu (Masquerade)' and 'Nosferatu (Requiem)' categories. Each separate category contains information on the clan (with specifics or the Masquerade and Requiem setting) and list all other pages (characters, lineages and powers) that have 'Nosferatu (Genre)' as a category. There is a need for genre (Requiem) as some clans are cross-genre.
